Landlords, agents and businesses in West Kingston

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For anyone letting property in or around West Kingston, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in West Kingston

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in West Kingston?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why West Kingston customers choose us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our pricing.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Enamelled baths
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Shower trays

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

West Kingston: your questions answered

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

How do I clean it?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Do you cover the entire of West Sussex?

All of West Sussex, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What affects the price in West Kingston

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your BN16 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
